G'day Lars
My name is Barry Gilbert, I'm a founding member of the Tamworth Regional Astronomy Club (TRAC). We have recently acquired the Uppsala 0.5 metre Schmidt telescope from siding spring. It is a rather large heavy telescope, that we disassembled for cheaper crane handling and transport. It is 178 kilometres from Tamworth. The following links are: The history of the "Southern Uppsala" and history of our club.

I will attach some images of the Uppsala in the a following post.
